I really hope that Lucy does not win. For once, I'd like the person with the most actual TALENT to win, as opposed to the most popular. Nobody that I've ever liked on AI has won... well, except for this year.

That is the price we pay for turning a talent contest in to a popularity contest. AI is the only show where the voters having a say makes any sense.

My Phillies are kicking butt!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought I had imagined that. Funny stuff. Instead of mocking Lil Richard (who calls it the white boy dance), everyone should have tried to do the Carlton dance. I'm sure Wayne can do it.

I'm glad the best voice won. I can see Alfonso in a Broadway musical, but not as a solo artist. He doesn't have the "look". Lucy has the look, but not the voice. Hal is the whole package, if he stops yelling.
